Bruce Lee
Bruce Lee- "I fear not the man who has practiced 10 000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times."
To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities.
Bruce Lee
Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successfull personality and duplicate it.
Bruce Lee
As you think, so shall you become.
Bruce Lee
Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.
Bruce Lee
Showing off is the fool’s idea of glory.
Bruce Lee
I fear not the man who has practiced 10 000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.
Bruce Lee
When life gives you obstacles, you must summon the courage and walk on!
Bruce Lee
If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.
Bruce Lee
Learn the principle, abide by the principle, and dissolve the principle. In short, enter a mold without being caged in it. Obey the principle without being bound by it. Learn, master and achieve!
Bruce Lee
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
Bruce Lee
Notice that the stiffest tree is most easily cracked, while the bamboo or willow survives by bending with the wind.
Bruce Lee
Obey the principles without being bound by them.
Bruce Lee
If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of.
Bruce Lee
Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.
Bruce Lee
The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.
Bruce Lee
It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.
Bruce Lee
Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.
Bruce Lee
Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential.
Bruce Lee
All fixed set patterns are incapable of adaptability or pliability. The truth is outside of all fixed patterns.
Bruce Lee
The easy way is also the right way.
Bruce Lee
Simplicity is the key to brilliance.
Bruce Lee
Absorb what is useful, Discard what is not, Add what is uniquely your own.”
Bruce Lee
The less effort, the faster and more powerful you will be.
Bruce Lee
When the opponent expands, l contract. When he contracts, l expand. And when there is an opportunity… l do not hit…it hits all by itself. Any technique, however worthy and desirable, becomes a disease when the mind is obsessed with it.
Bruce Lee
A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.
Bruce Lee
Using no way as way, using no limitation as limitation.
Bruce Lee
When one has no form, one can be all forms; when one has no style, he can fit in with any style.
Bruce Lee
A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.
Bruce Lee
Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.
Bruce Lee
Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Bruce Lee
Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend.
Bruce Lee
I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.
Bruce Lee
Do not be tense, just be ready, not thinking but not dreaming, not being set but being flexible. It is being “wholly” and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
Bruce Lee
One must be free. Instead of complexity of form, there should be simplicity of expression.
Bruce Lee
The height of cultivation always runs to simplicity… …The more complicated and restricted the method, the less the opportunity for expression of one’s original sense of freedom. Though they play an important role in the early stage, the techniques should not be too mechanical, complex or restrictive. If we cling blindly to them, we shall eventually become bound by their limitations.
Bruce Lee
Efficiency is anything that scores. Don’t indulge in any unnecessary, sophisticated moves.
Bruce Lee
Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely – lay your life before him.
Bruce Lee
Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick.
Bruce Lee
You just wait. I’m going to be the biggest Chinese Star in the world.
Bruce Lee
As long as I can remember, I feel I have had this great creative and spiritual force within me that is greater than faith, greater than ambition, greater than confidence, greater than determination, greater than vision. It is all these combined. My brain becomes magnetized with this dominating force which I hold in my hand.
